E Skip from Miami and Palm Beach 7/24

P

philadelphiawx

Picked up a few stations from South Florida via a lil e skip during the 11 am hour while in the car out in Montco.

97.9 from Palm Beach
94.9 from Miami
97.3 had something not ESPN radio from Millville.

Wondering if anyone else happened to luck into it today?
 
Something was coming in over IQ 106.9 when I was trying to listen to Hannity driving home from work today. A country station from VA was overpowering WMMR a week or 2 ago. I had to stream Preston & Steve on my iPhone driving to work from Paoli to West Chester.
 
Probably WFLS 93.3 in Fredericksburg, VA. They are strong throughout the greater Washington DC area & down to Richmond on a normal day & have been country for probably 40-some years.
 
I had 112 stations today, 8 in HD, and 2 translators. Shortest skip 530 miles, longest 1380 miles. From central NJ.

The e-skip started out strong at 9 in the morning to Florida, specifically south of I-4. Many strong enough to show call letters in HD, some strong and steady enough to completely decode in HD. Miami was in for the entire opening, other areas faded in and out. Faded out around 1 in the afternoon. The skip returned at 4:30 in the afternoon, weak at first, then all hell broke loose. Almost all of the local stations were not just unlistenable, they were GONE! Every frequency 3-5 stations deep, not including locals.

(HD) means the station decoded completely in HD on my HD radio. There were several others that showed call letters but no full HD decode.
 
Fabulous list there, Nick.

Oddly, lol, the four I caught here in NEPA weren't on your list!

One of them was the CBS news station from Washington -- WNEW on 99.1. That was probably more trope than eSkip, and really doesn't compare with anything on your list. But it was good to hear ; to judge what all the commotion is about.

A DXer's lament (plus a programming observation) : They didn't say the calls enough.
 
Here in Tampa, the FM dial was filled with stations from the northeast for about an hour late morning/early afternoon yesterday including Q-102 from Philadelphia!

I'm originally from south Jersey, so that was real exciting for me.

It was kind of like visiting home again for a short time.
 
Tropo was also chewing up 97.5; heard bits of what may have been country poking through Jon Marks and Dutch Daulton.
 
I can give you tower info on the ones I know of - I live in South Florida and the ones I added to are ones I receive as locals. Good e-skip!

Indeed, great logging! I commute daily from Allentown to Reading. Near Blandon, PA I can regularly pick up WETA 90.9 instead of WHYY, and there are a couple other stations that poke through the expected locals. This is just a combination of ground contour and elevation - in the shadow of one of the ridges, and with relatively flat terrain towards the SW.

So not even tropo there...
